12 best silent keyboards

Not everyone loves the rumble of keys, especially freelancers and copywriters who need to maintain a low noise background for an optimal working environment. To achieve this you need to resort to the following things:

• wear high-quality headphones;
• get silent membrane keyboard or mechanical.

Membrane models are the most common and have a relatively low price tag, if we talk about options without frills. They are also the quietest, and their variation of the "knife-membrane" generally has a short key travel, which is why it is sometimes difficult to tap. Mechanical keyboards are louder, more reliable and, as a result, more expensive.We have selected for you the top of the best silent keyboards in different categories.

The best silent keyboards: budget up to 2000 rubles.

4 CROWN CMKG-402 Black USB

A good price, nice design, several colors and backlight modes and most importantly - relative silence and ergonomics. To prevent the keyboard from being erased, it has an “anti-guest” coating that protects the buttons from premature erasure. The backlight is uniform and illuminates all the elements, because of what they can be seen even in the darkest part of the day.

Among the disadvantages is too bright light "headlights" or stripes on the bottom of the case. They do not carry any functionality and serve only as a design solution. Multimedia keys have become a convenient addition to the main. According to customers, the weight of 926 grams is considered insufficient for it, since during the game process it is too easy to move.

3 A4Tech KLS-7MUU Gray USB

Comfortable, low-profile KLS-7MUU Gray is suitable for the office, as it has an ascetic design and relatively low noise for its price segment. When unpacking, you may be surprised, since in addition to the standard USB cable, it also has a few additional connectors. The culprit of this “color” variety was the built-in USB hub and ports for connecting headphones and a microphone.

Buyers in their reviews warmly about this model. Note that with a long period of use and lack of care, it starts to make a lot of noise, so take good care of it so as not to wake the neighbors. Another disadvantage is the incomplete functioning of some keys on the Windows 7 operating system, for example, the Search multimedia key may not work.

2 MARVO K614 Black USB

The package of delivery of this noiseless keyboard can immediately intrigue the customer with its packaging - not everyone dares to portray the goods against the background of the apocalypse. The main advantage of the model can be considered a good tactile feedback, comparable to the mechanics. The noise is minimal, even despite this similarity.

The drainage system removes spilled water into the space between the keys and the casing, so lovers of drinking coffee or tea do not need to worry about sticking keys. Inside the keyboard is tightly packed and clamped with foam inserts. The length of the wire is 1.8 meters, and the model itself has an aggressive game design.

1 A4Tech KV-300H

The wired full-fledged scissor-type keyboard from a well-known Chinese manufacturer of peripheral devices also hit the top. The keyboard is pleased with the presence of a digital unit, a slim case and a built-in USB hub. There is a small gap between the keys - the model is considered to be an island, which also gives a plus in the piggy bank of silent operation. Tactile sensations are good - you know for sure that the key worked even with minimal pressure. The key travel is short and significantly speeds up typing speed. Pressing springy, all buttons are pressed equally well, nothing sinks.

The disadvantage lies in the long keys Shift, Ctrl, Enter, Alt, BackSpace - when you click on them, sometimes you hear a slight bounce. All other keys are quiet. Users in the reviews speak of high-quality printing of signatures on the keys, quiet operation and a pleasant body with metal inserts. The keyboard is too heavy, so it is suitable for stationary use.

The best silent keyboards: budget up to 5000 rubles.

4 Redragon USAS Black USB

Warranty 18 months - a definite plus. Like silence. There are many modes of illumination for all tastes. From the decorative there are metal "pens" with which you can move the keyboard or just put it on your feet to make it convenient. Done, in general, neatly. Keycaps are made of plastic with a matte finish.

The main disadvantage is the cable without winding. With prolonged use, there is a slight backlash of the keys. Most of the settings are available without software. You can assign macros, but only when the backlight is off. Additional keys are not provided. There is a small wrist rest. The basic software includes 3 presets settings.

3 HP Wireless K5510 Keyboard H4J89AA White USB

White, wireless, silent - many epithets on “b” can be chosen for this model. HP definitely knows a lot about office models, so this beauty is made in a minimalist style without frills. The keys are moderately slippery and feature a short button stroke. Separately, thank the manufacturer can be for distinct clicking.

The lack of light indication is considered a disadvantage, but it is not necessary. May lose the signal at a distance of 1.5-2 meters. The digital unit does not affect the compactness. Does not require software to connect. This color is not white, but beige or, more precisely, pearl.

2 Logitech Multi-Device Keyboard K480

This is a Bluetooth keyboard with a compact membrane type. In the design features - a recess for a smartphone or tablet, through which a bunch of devices turns into a laptop. The keys work quite quietly, their course is short, but you need to press it all the way because of the peculiarities of the membrane design. The keys are round, pleasant to the touch. It creates the positive effect of a rare typewriter. The impression of low-noise operation deteriorates with a creaking case when pressure is applied to it.

The dimensions of the keyboard are similar to those of laptops with a 13-inch monitor. The weight is rather big, this is done so that the design together with the overall tablet does not tip over.

1 COUGAR Vantar

The top-1 in this category received a keyboard with a stylish rainbow backlight and scissor-type keys. The best option for the desktop. The keys are pressed almost silently - thanks to the scissor mechanism. The course is also short, pleasant.The model implements the Anti Ghosting technology, which eliminates the problem of fictitious clicks. The optimal distance between the keys, protecting the user from frequent typos.

Users in the reviews note the quiet operation of the keyboard, even with an aggressive typing technique, and rejoice in the beautiful backlighting, but complain about its unevenness and budget. On any surface, the clave does not slip and crawl away, the weight is ideal - not too large in terms of mobility and not too small in terms of sustainability. A nice bonus from the manufacturer - no drivers are needed for correct work with the computer - everything is stably determined and works from the first moments of connection.

The best silent keyboards: a budget of up to 15,000 rubles.

4 Mad Catz S.T.R.I.K.E. 3 Gaming Keyboard Red USB

Silence and immediately 12 programmable keys - here is a short list of the advantages of this model. Black and red design is diluted with 16 million colors. The brush holder is present, as is the ability to set macros. The most convenient key layout helps to facilitate the work both with documents and just during the game process.

Pressings occur without much effort, do not erase for a long time. Wrist supports significantly unload hands. Does not slide on the table and although its weight is not specified, buyers say that it is difficult to move it. Details fit perfectly. Excellent replacement for branded models.

3 APPLE MAGIC KEYBOARD WITH NUMERIC KEYPAD

A great option for those who are looking for a keyboard that works via bluetooth. This membrane model of a classical design boasts a short key stroke, maximum quiet operation and a non-flabby space. The manufacturer took care of the user and put a USB cable in the box - in case the device is discharged and you need to print right now. The claimed battery life is a month.

The “apple” keyboard uses a scissor type of key fastening. The stroke is only a few millimeters, clear and not loose. The keys work perfectly - no hang-ups, phantom clicks, glitches and stunts. The sound is not audible, only light natural slaps from a finger touch to the keys. As buyers write in their reviews, this is ideal. This is an ideal option for technomaniacs who are tired of looking for a silent device for typing, code, and gaming.

2 Razer Cynosa Chroma Black USB

Buyer has 2 model options available - regular and PRO, the only difference of which is the presence of side illumination. In addition to the buttons themselves, the distance between them is highlighted. The “Chrome” type of illumination provides uniform illumination of all elements. It may vary depending on the events that occur.

The F keys are responsible for various settings — game mode, changing the backlight mode, and so on. All symbols are laser engraved. It has support for Razer Synapse version 3.0. Optimization of the firmware occurs immediately when you first connect. Reads simultaneously up to 10 keystrokes.

1 HyperX Alloy Elite RGB (Cherry MX Red) Black USB

In the first place of our top in this category, the insanely expensive and large keyboard from HyperX looks like a Corsair. Multimedia buttons are placed separately on the top panel, which, frankly, is superfluous here. The support under the palm is also huge, but the possibility of its unfastening is pleasing. Execution materials, as usual, are at a height - a metal case into which the switches are screwed.

Materials practical and almost not dirty. The wire is very thick, and the keyboard is extremely durable, so breaking it will be problematic. Cherry MX easily copes with its responsibilities and you can be sure that these are first-class keys with a 2 mm operating distance. Illumination can vary and overflow various effects.

How to choose a silent keyboard?

Despite the top presented by us, the choice of the keyboard is entirely based on personal feelings, as sellers may be deceiving to marketers. Come to the store, ask for a display case model and try all the keys personally.

I would also like to remind you that by buying mechanics, you will not be able to achieve absolute silence due to the technical features of this type of device.
